f major fingering
Tried to search and did not find anyone asking for this, but it seems Andrew showed it on one of its vids (tried to find the passage but coulnt :/)
Anyway, how is the F major scale fingering?
If i am not mistaken, its F G A A# C D E F, but if i start with 1 on F, 2 on G, and 3 on A i cant manage to do the thumb thuck to put 1 on A#, so i guess that for this scale it is done diferently ^^.
Anyway i should get my hanon book and scale book by next week, but any help sooner would be very welcome \(>^.^)>
edit:
phoned a friend \o/ its 1-2-3-4-1-2-3-4, dunno how i dint find it myself, but i tend to check thing first anyway, dont want to practice incorrectly and gain bad vices

Yupp
Thats the way I do it. I also found a great alternative that is easyer! But if its correct to do Im not sure about. But I know there is different fingerings for scales. So...
F G A A# C D E F
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

F G A A# C D E F
1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4

Re: f major fingering
Is there a guide for the proper fingering placements for all the scales? (the major ones at least) I couldn't find one on the forum
I did find this site, though.

The only thing that confuses me is their numbering on the way down. Seems physically impossible >.< Maybe that's just me.
Also (sorry for two questions in one post), after doing a tuck when playing a scale, do all the rest of the fingers need to be on/touching the piano? Or is it okay to have them just drop one by one as you play? Not sure if it's bad practice to do it per the latter.
